My Project

We live in a world where our youth are simply not provided with enough quality resources to shine. These high quality art materials will help make the dream of a bright future come true.

As in all areas of school supply, there is an area of need for art materials.

Yes, we do have some supplies: standard crayons (8 colors), standard newsprint drawing paper, white office printer paper, and construction paper in standard colors (for example, one shade of green, one shade of brown etc. . . ). In previous years my class has received art supply donations from donors working through DonorsChoose.org - all of these supplies have been well-used and highly appreciated. Now that I am working at a new school I must collect again the art supplies we need.

My students will use these various art materials to find new dimensions of creative expression. A lofty goal, but true! My students will be able to explore color, line, and composition with the crayons and watercolors I am requesting. They will create amazing collages with the construction paper (a bargain!).

It is always a great pleasure for me to see students engaged in lessons that have real meaning. In my classroom, art is always connected with a theme that my students are currently studying. The supplies that you provide will form an important part of the meaningful, rich, and culturally relevant curriculum that I strive to deliver. Rest assured: your donation will make a real difference.
